Stop 2

This tour is the time machine where we go back more than 5000 years ago exploring how they live, what they eat, what their dreams are and more. Such an unbelievable feeling you will get, because you will visit the Giza Pyramids which have become nearly equivalent with Egypt itself. Their incredible size continues to impress millions of visitors each year, as they struggle to understand how three kings Cheops, Chephren, & Mikerinos, could have constructed such massive structures so long ago.

Regardless of their fame, the Giza Pyramids are considered only a short chapter in the long history of Ancient Egypt. All three great pyramids, as well as the Queen’s pyramids next to them, were built during the Old Kingdom 4th dynasty.
